🌍 Commercial Marketing Manager (Fractional)
Location: Hybrid (Dudley, UK preferred)
Engagement: 2–3 days per week
Help shape the future of sustainable water technologies
At Aqueris, we're developing innovative technologies designed to help industries access and manage water more efficiently while supporting a more climate-resilient future. We are now looking for an experienced market development and strategic marketing professional to help us accelerate our next stage of growth.
This is a unique opportunity to join an ambitious deep-tech business at a pivotal stage of its journey and work closely with the leadership team to build market awareness, strengthen industry relationships and support commercial growth.
About the Role
This is not a traditional marketing position.
We're looking for someone who can combine strategic thinking with hands-on execution to help position Aqueris within key markets, develop high-value relationships and support our commercial objectives.
You will play an important role in shaping how we engage with customers, partners, investors, and industry stakeholders.
What You'll Be Doing
- Strategic Positioning: Own and evolve market messaging, sector narratives, and value propositions.
- Thought Leadership: Develop white papers, founder content, technical explainers, conference submissions, and media opportunities.
- Commercial Enablement: Refine investor decks, sales collateral, partnership materials, and pilot conversation assets.
- Demand Generation: Manage targeted LinkedIn activity, website conversion improvements, and selected outreach campaigns.
- Strategic Partnerships: Identify relevant industry events, associations, OEMs, customers, and channel partners.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
